The current rates for New York State unemployment insurance grants about $100 a week for people. These rates will hopefully be less needed in the future.
There are too many people who can't work or don't want to work. A zero unemployment rate would also mean that any new jobs would have to be filled entirely with new workers or those taken from other employment.
The New Deal tried public works, farm subsidies, and other devices to reduce unemployment, but Roosevelt never completely gave up trying to balance the budget. Unemployment remained high throughout the New Deal years though greatly reduced from the much higher rates before the New Deal; business simply would not hire more people, especially the low skilled and supposedly "untrainable" men who had been unemployed for years and lost any job skill they once had. Keynesians later argued that by spending vastly more money - using fiscal policy - the government could provide the needed stimulus through the multiplier effect. Critics of Keynesian economic theories said that government spending would "crowd out" private investment and spending and thus not have any effect on the economy, a proposition known as the Treasury view, which Keynesian economics reject.
In addition to the Consumer Price Index (CPI), which is probably the most important economic indicator, some other indicators include: Gross Domestic Product (GDP) - Value of all goods and services produced in a country. Unemployment rate - Percentage of able workers without a job. Inflation rate - Increase in the average level of prices. New housing rate -The rate of growth of residential construction.

FDR proposed a new set of economic and social measures to fight unemployment and poverty, and to provide real jobs to decrease the unemployment rate. Examples of the Second New Deal included the WPA, which was the major relief agency of the New Deal. It was to provide work, not welfare. The major new piece of legislation during the Second New Deal was the Social Security Act of 1935. It provided insurance for the aged, unemployed, and disabled and it was based on contributions by both employers and employees.

In 1934, the four states with the highest unemployment rates were Nevada, Michigan, California, and Oregon. The Great Depression had a severe impact on these states due to factors such as the collapse of industries, agricultural struggles, and financial instability. These states experienced unemployment rates well above the national average during this challenging period.
The second new deal was popular because they wanted to give farmers more money to grow crops and they wanted to fight unemployment.
